This American Athletic Conference game features the Memphis Tigers and the Tulsa Golden Hurricane.

The last time these teams met the Memphis Tigers won 67-64.

Memphis Tigers

The Tigers are coming off a good win over the UCF Knights. With that win, the Tigers are now 5-2 in conference and are now 5th. Another win would put them much closer to the top of the standings.

The Tigers have relied on their high scoring offense throughout the season. They average 83.2 points per game, which is 22nd in the country. They have three players who are averaging in double figures and Memphis will need to continue their balanced scoring. If the Tigers can once again have several players score 10 points or more, they will have a very good chance to continue their recent streak of good wins.

Despite having a high scoring offense, the Tigers have a defense that is allowing quite a lot of points. They allow 76.1 points per game overall, but they allow 84.8 points per game when on the road this season. Look for the Tigers to focus holding Tulsa under 80 points.

Tulsa Golden Hurricane

Tulsa have now lost three games in a row and have a conference record of 2-6. This puts them at 9th place in the conference. The Golden Hurricane will be looking for any kind of win in hopes that it will turn their season around before it is too late.

Tulsa is only averaging 70.3 points per game this season. In conference play, this number has dipped to 67 points per game. If Tulsa is going to have any chance in this game, they will need their leading scorer, DaQuan Jeffries, to have a breakout game.

The Tulsa defense may only allow 70.4 points per game, but in conference play they have allowed 76 points per game. This is where a lot of their struggles have come given their poor conference record. At the very least, teams are are only shooting an average of 40.8% from the field. If Tulsa is going to snap their losing streak, they will definitely need to hold the Tigers in the 70’s and also hold them in the low 40’s for shooting.
